00:00Here he is again, finding Aspreja. Little ball for Diaz, the shot, palmed away by Izzo.

00:07And it's just so quick, so dangerous.

00:11And the willingness to play forward, the belief to play forward.

00:14This is the key difference between the teams at the moment.

00:17Australia's link from midfield to the front line.

00:20There's been some opportunities that haven't materialized,

00:23but on three or four occasions now, and Luis Diaz turning and shooting for Izzo at the stretch.

00:29There's a free kick there, referee allows the advantage.

00:33The effort is not a bad one either from Luis Diaz.

00:37But when the ball was there to be won, Australia just not quick enough to the opportunity.

00:42Just the one goal for the Socceroos so far, Riley McGree.

00:47He's in his 33rd international, considers himself one of the more senior players these days.

00:53Steps up, goes for goal, and it wasn't far away.

00:57Fargas with a great save, and there will be no time for the corner.

01:02As referee Torrey Penso blows the halftime whistle.

01:06Certainly the type of player Australia need in full flight because of the options he provides, particularly in possession.

01:13James again, a little dink over the top.

01:16Body's falling.

01:17It was almost there for Portilla.

01:18Might yet be still.

01:19Penalty, I think.

01:21It is.

01:22It's a penalty for Colombia.

01:24It was another Colombian attack, and the referee took her time before making that decision.

01:29And he scores.

01:30James Rodriguez, coolly as you like, sending Paul Izzo the wrong way into the bottom corner.

01:42How high do Australia want to push?

01:44How full on do they want to go with the press?

01:46How intent do they want to be?

01:50Without leaving themselves open as Rafael Borre gets away.

01:53The chance now, surely two, and it is turned home by Lucho Diaz, the man of the moment for Colombia.

02:02He continues his outstanding scoring form.

02:05It's a 21st for Los Cafeteros, for Luis Diaz.

02:13In it comes from James, back post.

02:15Lerma, the chance again, and there it is.

02:18Jefferson Lerma.

02:20Or is it Davinson Sanchez in the end that got the final touch.

02:24It was there to be struck.

02:26The Colombian fans celebrate young and old in the stands.
